Weather Station Equipment This is the Davis Vantage Pro Plus Weather Station mounted on a 4x4 post. It has the UV and Solar sensors. Fan aspirated radiation Shield and heater for the rain bucket. The small gray enclosure on the side of the mounting post contains the batteries for the Fan aspirated Radiation Shield.  I decided to put the batteries in a separate enclosure which makes it much easier to replace them when needed. Otherwise you have to remove the Fan aspirated shield to do it.....not a real easy task. The PVC pipe rising above the station contains the Antenna for the Boltek Lightning Detector System.

The anemometer is mounted on a two piece antenna mast approximately 12 feet above the roof. The Davis Wireless Anemometer kit is also mounted to the mast.  Reception to the main console is very good.

Below are the computers running all the software for the Weather Monitoring Equipment.
